The Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE) has issued a warning about a financial scam that falsely promises foreign employment opportunities, specifically in Israel. The scam involves the use of WhatsApp links accompanied by photographs of senior SLBFE officials, which have been misappropriated from the bureau’s official Facebook page.
The SLBFE has received multiple complaints from individuals who have fallen victim to this fraudulent scheme. The bureau urges the public to remain vigilant and avoid engaging with these deceptive offers.
To report any related fraudulent activities, the public is advised to contact the SLBFE hotline at 1989 or via WhatsApp at 071 759 35 93.
